| Helwani confirms a boatload of Strikeforce fighters moving to the UFC
Saw this on Sherdog originally Helwani confirms Tarec, Mousasi, Gian Villante, Rockhold, - Sherdog Mixed Martial Arts Forums
and followed the pages to this link. http://twitter.com/UFCTonight
LOTS of good talent in there. Im sure this is just the beginning but im still hoping for some more.
One notable thing he says is Quote: |
"If you're watching @UFCTonight, that wasn't the complete list of SF fighters coming over. Just notables that I have been able to confirm."

Thomson | You forgot the obvious Cormier and Melendez. I still really want to see Barnett on the list.

Well with so many signings, there are also going to be many cuts in the near future.
Great that Mousasi is oficially in the UFC!

If Mousasi stays at 205, Vera and Shogun would be sick UFC debuts, but I really think it'd be best for him to drop down.

I think he would do best at MW.
not sure who said it, but bring Feijao!
